Hi ppl. I'm running kodi 16.1 on archlinux, everything works pretty well, except for youtube.

The weird is that if I uninstall kodi and install it again, youtube works again, but only for one time (if I close it stops working...).

I'm not sure if the thread should go in addon support, since if I re-install kodi it works again.

I removed /var/lib/kodi/.kodi/userdata/addons_data/plugin.video.youtube (a bunch of times), restarted kodi, etc. Still the same crash.

Code:

I'm having the same problem with <urlopen error [Errno 0] Error> when trying to play a YouTube video, except I'm on Gentoo ~amd64 and I'm using Kodi 17b1 with Python 2.7.12.

I finally tracked down the problem (at least, the one that I was having).

I'm betting you're using pyopenssl 16.1. Downgrade to the previous version and Youtube and everything else should work again. I've reported this issue to Kodi at http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/16914

Let me know - hopefully you're having the same problem I had and the same workaround applies.
